There are 2^6 possible ways the coin tosses could have gone down (eg toss A for hillary, toss B for bernie, etc). Of these 64 scenarios, only one results in Hillary winning all six tosses. Thus the odds are 1/64.
Compare this to a scenario in which each party wins exactly three of the six flips. Of the 64 possible scenarios, twenty of them result in a 3-3 split (you can write it all out to confirm). so the odds of a 3-3 split are 20/64.
So the odds of hillary winning all six coin tosses are 20 times less likely than the odds of a 3-3 split! she basically won the lottery (or somebody had their thumb on the scale).
this is basically the new cotton gin, the mechanical device that reduced labor on the cotton farm and made events like the abolition movement practical. how will it change america's relationship with the migrant farmworker population, and how does that intersect with all the calls to Build A Wall, etc? What happens when you put millions of low skilled laborers out of work? It will be exciting times!
I've seen speculation, but no evidence, that her server was pwned by outside interests. Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but I've not seen the evidence to support the claim.
do you really need evidence on this? I think it's safe to assume. when the sun sets, it's safe to assume that it is still illuminating other parts of the planet. it's unlikely it has extinguished itself completely.
I thought about my comment, and I think there's a better way to phoase it. the repubs in congress will gleefully take the opportunity to apss all sorts of crazy laws. obamacare? gone. planned parenthood? gone.you name it, it's gone. trump will definitely sign these.
Congress would spend most of its time dispensing with his vetoes, defunding any department he tried to turn to whatever idiotic or evil plan (if you can call what he does "planning") he had in mind.
why woudl you think this? repubs own both halves of congress, and while I don't think they'll go in for his most radical stuff, they're not going to outwardly challenge or overrule him.
this is in no way true. according to google trends, the hillary email topic first spiked in March of last year. 11 months later, it's still making national headlines, even though there hasn't been any indictments or real news of any kind. there's only 8 more months until the election, and this will probably drag on way beyond this.
It doesn't matter if she's convicted, or even if she's guilty or not. the republican candidate will make sure that this is the only thing that people talk about, and she'll never get to have a conversation about why people should vote for her. it will dominate news and conversations, and suffocate her message.
First off, Hillary had a privately owned server. She owned it, not the government.
yes, this is the most important part. she stored her emails in a likely insecure manner that was likely not up to the requirements of an email server that stored classified material (because, if it were, it would have been a pain in the ass to use which is why she switched to a private server in the first place). Even though no emails leaked snowden-style, I assume she was owned by every single country on earth.
it's likely a crime to even store this material in an insecure manner, which is what she did.
hilary is basically unelectable over this issue. who ever the republican nominee is (begins with TRUM) will hammer her daily about this, drown out all the news cycles, and she'll never be able to get her message out there.
you know i'm not compelled? it sounds like TMo is trying to innovate in order to compete for customers by offering a better service, and the competitors instead of innovating are using government regulators to squash them. typical.
I always enjoyed bennett's rambling posts on random topics, and how he fixed these urgent problems while cooking an egg or whatever. the comments were always the best.
no. when they want to bury it, they release it on friday afternoon. ive never heard anybody say that thurs is bad. is weds also bad, and tues and mon? which days are no longer bad?

Ikr? Why not just say nanometer? Everybody knows what that means.
They would probably make planned parenthood illegal, revoke the copyrights, and arrest the executives.
The very big cities can probably claim several dozen women each who are more qualified.
so basically, hillary isn't quite one-in-a-million, but is definitely one-in-a-hundred-thousand?

this is not a long term issue

What a load of garbage. There is no evidence.

TMo says the program is open to anybody who wants to participate. nobody's getting excluded if they don't want to.
you know i'm not compelled? it sounds like TMo is trying to innovate in order to compete for customers by offering a better service, and the competitors instead of innovating are using government regulators to squash them. typical.
Maybe they created that virus? Or maybe it was NK?
Just use romanji (or pinyin in Chinese). This is an English board...
What does zero rated mean.
What if you need to stick in a kanji or a Cyrillic word?
I don't think it's anything to worry about. If you just use the regular English letters then people will know what you mean.

to be fair, thats just informal language. used to be, "try to to guagee"
Was their ever any more news on this slashdot related topic:

dude, you should have known better than going to slashdoot.com!
i don't get it. I see all your fancy characters. how would unicode help with that?
no. when they want to bury it, they release it on friday afternoon. ive never heard anybody say that thurs is bad. is weds also bad, and tues and mon? which days are no longer bad?
nobody yet has mentioned the darth jar jar conspiracy. when will this one be revealed to be confirmed? what does the math say on that?
I agree, SJW is very relevant here and adds meaningful context to this issue./s
